Well this was total bust. Meeting my nephew for Sunday brunch. Had 12:30 reservation only to show up and discover the restaurant is closed. The front desk guy was great: apologetic and helpful but very disappointed

We made reservations for brunch for 10:45am only to arrive and be told that they don’t open until 4:30pm. We had to find another place to eat.

It was dead when we arrived and took almost 10 minutes for the bartender to approach us with menus. The menu is tiny but we knew we just wanted simple burgers and drinks before the Bruins game. This burger was so delicious- cooked perfectly, great toppings, and perfect size. The fries were equally delicious. The super spicy pickle was a great touch too. It was nice to eat in a quiet chill atmosphere before being surrounded by the madness of Boston hockey fans. I wish the service was just a little better.

We had 4:30 reservations and they didn’t open until almost 5:00 and they never even contacted us to left us know they were going to open late. We decided to go elsewhere to eat.

We chose Blake’s because it was near TD Garden and took reservations. It was overall a poor experience. The wait staff didn’t know what they were doing and food from a very limited menu was poor and cold. We won’t go back. We certainly didn’t need a reservation there !

Came in for a quick bite before the Celts. I know some people don’t like restaurants in hotel lobbies, but I wanted to give it a try. If anyone wants to come here for drinks, I recommend you stick to bottled beer or wine, as the mixed drinks were not great. Our server was super nice, and offered to remake, but they just weren’t great margaritas and mojitos. We switched to wine. We had their hamburger and chicken sandwich and both were good (in fact, the hamburger had a slight In-n-Out taste, so I liked it quite a lot!), and they had an option of fried cauliflower instead of fries and that was delicious. But overall, it won’t be my first choice to hit again.
